WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. *AK

WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING BOLT BECAME LOSE WHICH CAUSED THE STEERING WHEEL TO JUMP AROUND. WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE CONSUMER TO STEER THE VEHICLE. *NLM THE STEERING KNUCKLE RIPPED OUT AND THE CRADLE BROKE CAUSING EVERYTHING UNDER THE HOOD TO FALL OUT. THE CRADLE HAD TO BE REPLACED. *TT *JB

THE POWER WINDOW FAILED TO ROLL DOWN. *JB THE NEW MOTOR DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM AND HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO MOVE THE WINDOWS UP OR DOWN. *SCC

I HAVE REPLACED THE DOOR HANDLES ON BOTH THE DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGER DOORS. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE BROKE OFF IN MY HAND SO I HAVE NO WAY TO GET INTO MY VEHICLE AT ALL SHORT OF BREAKING A WINDOW JUST TO REPLACE YET ANOTHER DOOR HANDLE. VERY POOR DESIGN AND VERY WEAK POT METAL HANDLES AT 135.00 EACH TIME ONE IS REPLACED (NOT INCLUDING LABOR)THIS IS GETTING REDICULOUS. DT

THE FRONT SEAT BELTS IN MY VEHICLE HAVE A TENDENCY TO LOCK UP WHEN YOU START TO PULL ON THE BELTS TO PUT THEM ON. MY PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT IS NOW COMPLETELY UNUSEABLE BECAUSE THE BELT RETRACTOR HAS STOPPED WORKING. THIS BELT WILL NO LONGER RETRACT. ALSO, THE GUIDE LOOPS FOR BOTH SEAT BELT ARE CRACKED AND THE GUIDE WHERE THE SEAT BELT GOES INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS ALSO CRACKED. DT

CONSUMERS SON WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED. TAPPING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL, THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND. THINKING THE ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK, CONSUMER TRIED TO FREE IT BY HAND. THE ACCELERATOR WAS FREE AND FUNCTIONING. THE DEALERS FINAL DIAGNOSIS WAS THE CRUISE CONTROL LINKAGE DID NOT DISENGAGE BUT HELD THE ACCELERATOR OPEN, CAUSING A RACING ENGINE AND RUNAWAY VEHICLE. *JG *DT

WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, STEERING WHEEL WOULD LIFT UP OR DOWN WITHOUT USING STEERING ADJUSTMENT. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AKWHILE IN MOTION, CONSUMER HAD TO BRAKE SUDDENLY, PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE STEERING WHEEL. CONSUMER HEARD A POP AND THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO LIFT UP AND DOWN WITHOUT THE USE OF THE ADJUSTER LEVER. *JG

THE REAR ENGINE CRADLE BUSHINGS RUSTED CAUSING THE ENGINE TO DROP TO THE GROUND WHILE DRIVING RESULTING IN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. NLM

FRONT SEATS ORIGINAL HAVE NO ADJUSTMENT FOR RECLINING--SEATS LAY BACK TOO FAR AND IT FEELS LIKE YOU ARE LAYING DOWN--HEAD REST DON'T STAY UP--SEAT BELTS COME OUT OF DOOR AND BECAUSE OF INCLINE OF SEATS TOO FAR THE SHOULDER STRAP IN FAR AWAY FROM SHOULDER
